Introduction to computational modeling in hyperthermia
Other text in scientific journal, 2022

Over the past two decades, computational modeling has gained a prominent role in hyperthermia research and its role for guiding treatments is expanding. Computational modeling serves e.g., to design new applicators, in silico testing of novel treatment approaches and providing insight in treatment safety. Hyperthermia treatment modeling and optimization (HTM&O), also known as hyperthermia treatment planning (HTP), is the process in which the multidisciplinary hyperthermia team defines the optimal treatment plan for a specific cancer patient using the available hyperthermia treatment resources. HTM&O includes computational modeling approaches for pretreatment HTP and online treatment guidance.
